CE Juncker Coastal Artillery Badge

[Dennis P]

Hello:

I've been looking a my KM badges at bit today, and I thought I would share my Juncker Coastal Artillery badge while I had it out.

Hardly a day goes by when I don't learn something new on this forum, so your comments are welcome.

Denis,

Great badge! I have been keeping my eyes open for a minty Schwerin Coastal, just like yours. Great find.


And Thomas,

Are those four all Schwerins? They look so 'at home' in their boxes.

Thomas:

Those Junckers are amazing!!! I can't help but notice the varied finish on the reverse sides....any thoughts on this? By the way, sounds like you have a GREAT job.


Mark:

Thanks for the kind words. Everything I've seen you post from your collection is world class. I feel like such a catfish at times.

Dennis,

Thank you. I try my best, and I can say, I really have an addiction to the minty ones..... just like the day they were pinned on the tunic!

Regards,
Mark

Dear Dennis,

Nice badge but, as so often, the barrel of the gun has the tip broken off.

Juncker certainly did have variances of the finish on the reverse. Here are 3 with black, silver and gold reverses.
